The First Blocks have Arrived!!

Oh sweet Dawn...

from

Quilting by Dawn 

Thank You for the beautiful blocks...

 I can't wait to start putting these quilts together.

The Guitar Man

is finishing up kits for the show...

Whimsy Lane Kits

Meet Me In Paris Kits

And I worked on a couple of sample Dresden blocks

for the shoppe below that is interested in our patterns.

 

I'm crossing my fingers that we will get this fabric in for Meet Me In Paris kits ourselves.

 

We stopped in at this shoppe

in Watkins Glen, NY

and what an amazing place.

Check it Out Here!

Time to load up and get on the road....

Stitchin' Love to All!

 

Update on Tory

I talked to Tory today

and for the first time since

this tragedy...

she sounded more like her old self.

She read all of your comments...

and even posted the link to the page

on her Facebook page

and 

wrote....

I was doing good on crying till I read all of the comments. I'm touched. Ily&&imy babe rip

 

I noticed several people from New York

went into the comment page

and read all of your heart felt comments too.

So you wonderful ladies

not only helped to bring some peace and healing

to my little girl...

but to a whole community.

So thank you again ...

from the bottom of my heart!

(Words can't express what your comments meant to me!)

I have to show you this picture Tory

also posted on her Facebook page.

It is of Chris' grave.

His best friend...the soldier who was with him when he died...

was with her 

and they poured a drink over his grave...

and it formed a perfect heart.

 

Is that not so very touching...

and quite the miracle?

God is good!

Tory has spent the last week with Dan (Chris soldier friend)

and his young wife...

He took Chris' leave...

to come home.

I think it was healing for the two of them to be together 

and to talk things through.

Well...

we are off in the morning

for our

AQS Des Moine show.

Please stop by the booth

if any of you are coming.

I'd love to see you!

Warm Hugs...

A Finished Block for Tory

I managed to get a center block done

for the quilt I will make Tory,

when all the blocks come in.

I also had to share with you these fabrics

I picked up at the quilt shoppe 

in Watkins Glen...

Aren't they yummy?

I'm trying to see if we can get the whole line into the shoppe.

They come in a lavender color too.

If we do...

we will definitely be making

Meet Me In Paris kits out of them...

as well as Whimsy Lane kits!

Back to my stitchin'....
